I was inspired by Lenet Mos and her WMS Star Christmas Card. Trying to make it my own, I used the Heart and made mine a valentine. It's okay - not as fabulous as Lenet's card, but pretty. The stamps are amazing to work with - I used Close-to-My-Heart Cotton Candy ink (new color available 9/1/10) and the lighter pattern paper is a CTMH oldie (i.e. retired) in Baby Pink. The bolder plaid is from Bo Bunny. The French writing on the background is a Stampin' Up stamp (I {heart} this stamp!). Can you say DIVERSE? Today was Open Stamping at my house and we had a blast!!!!! I love my friends! They are so creative, funny, scary - they have hearts of pure gold and I trust them with my life. To be honest, I don't think I could be happy without my dear friends. They bring balance and purpose. I am so grateful for the days we spend together!
Well, I didn't mean to get all mushy - especially since I'm linking this post to a challenge! Ooops.
Hugs!

Beautiful card, Sharli! Great mix of stamps, too. I am happy to see the Nestabilities heart as well. Guess who finally ordered herself a set today? Your post convinces me it was a good idea. LOL.
